Here's how you do it:

1. You look up what gif you want and copy the URL.

Then, you put
tags at the beginning and end of the URL.

And then you're done!

I asked Governess the same question and she gave me this answer. Works perfectly!

Can you do that with a .gif or .jpg on your local hard drive or other device? Basically that would involve inserting a directory path instead of a link.
 
Problem is, the file size limit doesn't allow for any of the good ones.

So many times I wanted to use the JLAW "Yeah okay, sure"

The easiest way I've found is to click on the "insert image" button....



Then insert the url of the gif you want to post then uncheck the "Retrieve remote file and reference locally" box.

You can upload ones that are local to your PC. There may be a size limit though.

It looks like the site you are using doesn't work with IE. Have you tried FireFox or Chrome? This is the result I got with Firefox.
